My doctor advised me to take Deviry 10 mg for 10 days, but due to a family emergency, I was unable to take the tablets. Four days later, I got my period with slightly heavier and more painful bleeding than usual. Could missing Deviry affect my endometrial lining or increase the risk of implantation failure after embryo transfer? My doctor also told me that some of the blood had come out while the remaining blood was still inside the uterus. Is this something I should be worried about, and could it affect implantation?
Missing Deviry tablets can cause hormonal changes that may lead to heavier or more painful bleeding, but this does not usually cause permanent damage to the endometrial lining. The endometrium naturally changes and regenerates with each menstrual cycle, and implantation depends on factors such as embryo quality, timing, and endometrial readiness. Heavy bleeding alone does not mean implantation will definitely fail. Your doctor’s comment about some blood coming out and some remaining inside may refer to blood or fluid within the uterus, but this cannot be confirmed without an examination or ultrasound, and the bleeding may clear naturally. Since you are undergoing embryo transfer, please inform your fertility specialist about the missed Deviry tablets and bleeding so they can assess the endometrial lining and uterine cavity with an ultrasound and decide whether the uterus is adequately prepared for embryo transfer.
